Fibronectin and Fibronectin Receptors in Lung Development

open access: yesExperimental Lung Research, 1997
Fibronectin (FN) is a cell adhesive extracellular matrix protein highly expressed in developing lungs. Although the role of FN in lung development remains to be elucidated, several observations suggest that it plays important roles in many developmental processes. In vitro, FN can affect the migration, proliferation, differentiation, and even apoptosis

PL1 Peptide Engages Acidic Surfaces on Tumor-Associated Fibronectin and Tenascin Isoforms to Trigger Cellular Uptake

open access: yesPharmaceutics, 2021
Tumor extracellular matrix (ECM) is a high-capacity target for the precision delivery of affinity ligand-guided drugs and imaging agents. Recently, we developed a PL1 peptide (sequence: PPRRGLIKLKTS) for systemic targeting of malignant ECM.

CD9 co-operation with syndecan-1 is required for a major staphylococcal adhesion pathway

open access: yesmBio, 2023
Epithelial colonization is a critical first step in bacterial pathogenesis. Staphylococcus aureus can utilize several host factors to associate with cells, including α5β1 integrin and heparan sulfate proteoglycans, such as the syndecans.

Metformin alters signaling induced crosstalk and homeostasis in the carcinogenesis paradigm “Epistemology of the origin of cancer”

open access: yes4 open, 2019
The anti-hyperglycemic drug, Metformin, is effective in treating early stages of diabetes and has been associated with a 37% decrease in cancer incidence. While the precise mechanisms for the anti-cancer effects of Metformin remain to be elucidated, this
